We are surrounded by pine trees where we live. They are called pine trees, because when the wind blows through them, they sound like they are pining, or sighing. (Or maybe the word came after the tree name? Either way.) When the wind blows through palm tree branches, they sound like they are cheering. During the triumphal entry, the people were cheering and shaking palm tree branches; it would have been a tumultuous hurrah!

I'll try to post every day this week so if you would like to do this with your family, you are welcome to!
